For approximately 1yr, the headlights on my Jeep Liberty sport 2004 have been flickering on and off. It use to happen only once and awhile and they would go right back on and then stay on. However recently I have been unable to drive my Jeep at night because the headlights constantly go on and off on me and sometimes stay off.

Headlights go off then back on with a clicking sound under dash. Problem is intermittent. Chrysler case # [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
- Fort Pierce, FL, USA
While driving my headlights began to turn on and off by themselves. I hear the click click like they are being turned on or off but it is happening on it's own. This has no happened multiple times and currently I can not drive it at night or during bad weather. It happens in rapidly the cars around think I am flashing lights at them. Very dangerous!
- Melbourne, FL, USA
The headlights will cut off randomly when driving at night. It happens at all speeds. There is a "clicking" sound when they cut off and then back on. It seems to stop it when I manually cut the headlights off and back on. This is very dangerous and has happened many times when I driving on a freeway and also on local streets.
- Raleigh, NC, USA
The headlights flick on and off while driving. I can hear the headlight relay clicking when the lights cycle on and off. This is a significant safety issue and based upon the number of complaints should be addressed by Jeep.
- Canton, GA, USA
I own a Jeep Liberty 2004 lights flicker on and off sporadically happens about two times a week. Most times it tends to happen either rainy or humid days (ie: Early morning).
- New Canaan, CT, USA
Headlights spontaneously switch off then back on, sometimes several times in succession. This occurs nearly every time the vehicle is operated with lights on. Individual episodes last anywhere from 1-5 sec, occur multiple times during one drive interval. Significant safety risk for "blind" driving (no headlights) and incorrect interpretation of signals to other drivers.

2004 Jeep Liberty- the headlights will turn off and then back on while driving and there is an audible clicking sound when this happens. It started happening about two years ago. The vehicle now has about 60,000 miles on it. We have had the car to the dealer and an independent mechanic and they both say they can not determine intermittent problems. I just googled about this problem and it is amazing how many Jeep owners have experienced this same problem.
- Bel Air, MD, USA
Headlights go off intermittently, for 1 - 2 seconds. This seems to happen repeatedly on certain highways, while driving past the same location. The headlight relay can be heard to click off and on when this happens. The dealer checked the car for this problem 2 years ago but they could not duplicate it or find any fault in the electrical system.
- Bridgewater, NJ, USA
The headlights of my 2004 Jeep Liberty sporadically blink on and off while I'm driving. This first occurred over a year ago, which I had brought my car to the dealer's service center and was told they could not duplicate the issue. The issue seemed to have been resolved after having to replace the lamps of the headlights a few weeks after; however, has recurred over the past few months. In research I've found on-line discussions of Jeep drivers with the same issue, an issues some communicate they've reported as far back as two years ago. I find it very disturbing the dealer service center was unable to pin point the issue and now very frustrated to learn others have the same concerns and there hasn't been a recall. Please take consideration into this matter to help resolve this very dangerous issue.
- Orlando, FL, USA
All lights, (including headlamps), intermittently turn off. This has happened 3 times already, all at night while driving 65-70 mph on the highway. The first occurrence was around July, 2009. The last occurrence was last night, June 7, 2010. Nothing but pitch blackness when they went off. Had to try to steer car to side of road. If you turn the headlamp on/off a few times or jiggle the control it will turn on/off and then stay on. This is pretty dangerous. This is my daughter's car and I will not let her drive it anymore as a result.
- Dacula, GA, USA
Headlights intermittently flash on/off several times. I hear the relay clicking. This occurs one or two times every other day or so.
